When it comes to reading, my son Sam used to be a lot like the MIkey kid in the cereal commercial. If he liked a book, you knew it had to be terrific. We both loved Christopher Paul Curtis’ Bud, Not Buddy (and evidently the Newbery Medal and the Coretta Scott King Award judges agreed). Now I’m excited to report that Mr. Curtis is coming to town with a new book spinning off one of the Bud, Not Buddy characters — Deza Malone in The Mighty Miss Malone. Also cool, you can meet the author in Fort Worth tomorrow. I’ve got all the details in my Family Fun Kids Corner here.
